Pontiac Grand Prix Visibility Defroster/defogger System Windshield Blower Safety Report | Oct 28, 2011
Reported on Oct 28, 2011
| IN OCTOBER 2011, I NOTICED THAT MY A\C & HEATING FAN WAS WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. AFTER A HARD RAIN, THE FAN STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY, AND I NOTICED A LARGE PUDDLE OF WATER ON THE PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR. I DECIDED NOT TO HAVE THE BLOWER MOTOR REPLACED UNTIL AFTER I COULD FIND THE EXACT LOCATION OF THE WATER LEAK. IN SPRING 2012, WHILE WASHING MY CAR, I NOTICED THAT THE SEAL BETWEEN THE WINDSHIELD AND THE HOOD IS NOT PROPERLY CONNECTED, AND THAT WATER COULD BE PUSHED INTO A HOLE IN THE SEAL. THE SEAL IS NOT DAMAGED - THERE IS SIMPLY A GAP BETWEEN THE SEAL AND WINDSHIELD. WATER RUNS BEHIND THE GLOVE BOX, THROUGH ELECTRICAL WIRING AND EQUIPMENT, MAKING THIS A FIRE HAZARD. *TR | |
